Medtronic MiniMed is recalling approximately 1,086,165 insulin pumps from several model series, including the Paradigm, 600, and 700 series. These devices have a risk of delivering too much or too little insulin if the pump is moved significantly higher or lower than the site where it is connected to the body. Specifically, gravitational force can change the pressure in the system, potentially causing unintended insulin delivery which can lead to life-threatening blood sugar levels.
If the pump is raised above the infusion site, it can cause over-delivery of insulin leading to severe low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), seizures, or coma. If lowered, it can cause under-delivery leading to severe high blood sugar (hyperglycemia) and diabetic ketoacidosis. Reports of injuries including seizures, coma, and death have been associated with this pressure-related delivery issue.
